Losing game after game, although i´m clearly stronger

[Kloetengott]

Hallo,

i have a ingame problem and i´m not sure what´s the cause for it, but it really destroys my season.

Please see attached screenshot.
Although my Team is slightly stronger, my players have very high moral and condition, and i´m watching the game and i should have much more ball-contacts, the enemies seems to be far superior to me.
The moment you see the strenghts compared is representative for the whole game, and for many other games i´ve played and losed.
Can somebody explain please?

You need three men on the back line

Yep, you always need 3 players in the green spots. DMR and DML are considered midfielders and not defenders.

Otherwise you are playing on ilegal formation.

Shearch the forum for ilegal formation, and you will find a lot of information.

Damn it, i didn´t know that... Thought the formation looked very balanced :-/
Ok, Thanks for the information. I wish i had asked earlier, i would probably still be in Champions League.

Thanks

Since your formation has only 2 defenders(DL,DC,DR),so you're playing an illegal formation.
Try to move the DMC into DC ,it will solve the problem.
